How to stand up to a dictator: the fight for our future.
LSE Review of Books.
In How to Stand Up to a Dictator: The Fight for Our Future, Maria Ressa considers the links between authoritarianism and social media, recounting her work exposing disinformation networks seeded by the Duterte government and consequent attempts to silence her. Ressa’s memoir is a fascinating, if depressing, account of how democracy has been threatened, in the Philippines and beyond, through the strategic spread of disinformation, writes Duncan Green. How to Stand Up to a Dictator: The Fight for Our Future. Maria Ressa. Penguin. 2022.
